HP Lights-Out 100c firewall problem ?

[terry dan]

I have installed the above on a lan behind a netgear router.
I open various ports on the firewall that I found listed on the forums.
I get the web interface fine but when running the java kvm link which works fine on the lan after a time i get an error on the client pc refering to a java error and time out.
In the end i put the server in a dmz and still had the same problem.
Any info welcome

hi

so young can browse the server using KVM but after some time KVM closes for a java issue??? is that right?

what is your java version?
are you using IE 6.x or 7.x? or firefox?

It refers to a time out so i was convinced it was a firewall issue.
But now all ports are open

hi


I don't know if that server has latest firmware for 100c anyway this is the link

also I was checking my java version and it is 1.5_12 which I don't have any problems using either firefox 3 - IE 6

so my recommendation uninstall your current java, reboot and install this version - you must unistall and reboot to avoid conflicts having 2 java versions

try and let us know

I have tried the java update and still get the same error. As for the firmware I wont have a chance to try that until I am on site at some point.
At least in the mean time if needed I can access another rpc on the lan remotely and use kvm link that way
Thanks for your time

Just a thought but the client pc is behind a router. No firewall enabled on it but would I need to let any ports back through to the client ?
